Knife-sheath - Japan - 1970-1980

This set of two vintage Japanese yanagiba knives is a beautiful example of traditional Japanese craftsmanship. Designed for the finest cutting work, these knives are ideal for preparing fish, sashimi, and sushi, where precision and control are essential.

Both knives feature a slim, single-edged blade with an elegant, elongated point. The lengths of about 35 cm and 37 cm give them a professional appearance and allow long, smooth cutting motions. The knives are sharp and still in excellent usable condition.
The steel blades show an authentic patina and signs of use, appropriate to their age and history. This gives the knives character and underlines their vintage origin. The wooden handles sit comfortably in the hand and have a warm, natural appearance.

These yanagibas are not only functional, but also highly appealing to collectors, chefs, and enthusiasts of Japanese kitchenware. They combine aesthetics, tradition, and craftsmanship in one set.

A special opportunity to bring two true Japanese classics into your home, with a story, a soul, and a cutting experience that modern knives seldom match.
